Stage 2 - Snowshed Rehabilitation, Glacier National Park

Parks Canada is soliciting bids for the rehabilitation of concrete roof beams at two snowsheds—Tupper No.1 Snowshed and Len’s Snowshed—located at km 18.1 and km 18.8 along the Trans-Canada Highway in Glacier National Park, British Columbia. This is the second stage of a two-stage selection process, with only pre-qualified suppliers invited to submit detailed technical and financial proposals. The work includes complete rehabilitation of structural elements, traffic control management, and strict adherence to safety regulations under the Canada Labour Code and Canada Occupational Health and Safety Regulations. All contractors must comply with the Standard Acquisition Clauses and Conditions (SACC) manual, including contract clauses addressing administration, execution, protective measures, delays, default, dispute resolution through the alternate CG8 Règlement des différends R2882D, and contract security with optional clauses. Performance, bid, and labour and material payment bonds using PWGSC-TPSGC forms 504, 505, and 506 are mandatory, along with a certificate of insurance covering six years after substantial performance. Bidders must hold valid security clearances as specified in supplementary conditions, and all personnel, including subcontractors, must be cleared for site access. A mandatory site visit is required, with attendance confirmed via a signed sheet; failure to attend disqualifies a bid. Contractors must register for direct deposit with Parks Canada for payment and submit all proposals electronically via email to [email hidden], with a total submission size capped at 15 megabytes. The solicitation closes on July 6, 2026, and award is based solely on full compliance with mandatory requirements; no scoring or trade-off analysis is applied. The place of performance is Golden, British Columbia, with all work governed by official drawings, specifications, and administrative directives under the Government of Canada as represented by the Parks Canada Agency.
